I love the way you treat every car the same whether its a $600K car or a hunk of junk. Goes to show your character and work ethic. You rock!

[stevecarter]

Glad to see someone saving a car. I know you can’t save them all, but some cars still have life in them. Some people just love the nostalgia.

That's awesome! Older cars are the best! Sometimes they are more reliable than newer cars i believe, they are more straightforward in function, and there seems there is less high tech stuff to have to deal with when it breaks! Love it!

The quality of the carpets and upholstery on what was a basic commuter car is astounding compared to the cars now. This car is cleaned out, and all set for someone to get a new start in life because of it - this is good stuff! ❤😊

I miss my 2000 Grand Am. She was the best HS Grad gift ever. Easy to clean and I could do some maintenance myself. New cars are so hard to work on and they will all look the same soon.

This is a perfectly good car for someone. I enjoy seeing cars like this rescued far more than a supercar being detailed! Excellent work dude - and loving the guitar too

[CarCrazy]

I have a suggestion: make a new channel or a new series of just saving cars from the scrap heap. These transformations are incredible and it’s really nice to see these cars come back from the brink.

[sterlingstauffer]

This is one of my favorite episodes ever! Seeing an old forgotten car get love and attention is one of my favorite things to watch.

[LongNeckLives]

For 25 years old, that car looks fantastic!

Not gonna lie, really miss Pontiac. Also, a hilarious observation: the screws on your extractor almost remind me of eyes. It almost looks like it's gobbling up all of the dirt. So I was thinking, googly eyes on the extractor head would be even more hilarious.

It makes me so happy to see another J-Body saved from the crusher. These are fantastic cars, very cheap but reliable. Their main downfall is the rear frame rails but you really can’t beat these old units. That 2.2 pushrod engine is literally bulletproof, I’d even go as far as to compare it to an Inline 6 engine in a Jeep. Too often people destroy these things just because they need a little work and they are disappearing at an alarming rate. This video made my day though to see this car get saved. Great job my friend.😄

As a former car detailer i love watching your vids. Gets me back into the spirit of cleaning and detailing and wanting to get back out there and pretty up a car lol. I remember the most types of trucks i had to clean were duelies. I hated them but accepted the challenge of cleaning them. They helped me get better at detailing

[tekarock]

This type of detailing is why I started watching car detailing to start with! Great job! Give us some more please but can you include more explanation about products that can be used in the outside painting to make look better 😊

[schoonergirl]

There’s magic in your hands Mitch, that and years of experience. If anyone can resurrect this vehicle it’s you. This was highly entertaining! So glad you took this challenge on!

[mikehittner]

Not done watching this video yet, but I can feel this car already going... thank you!!! :) Also I dig when you clean up a car that is more on my level of what I can afford. :)

[Driver]

Sure brings back memories of detailing these cars when they were new. 😊 Not to mention the good times and memories with my Cavalier Z24. They were so much simpler and easier to work on too. As much I love my current car, there are days I’d give almost anything to drive that old “Z” again.

[noranlexer]

I like this idea! You should make this into a series! Saving older cars from being junked is awesome.

[chelsealangley]

There’s something so amazing about restoring the old cars. I can imagine being an adult in in 1999 or 2000 and this car being brand new, popular and all over the market. There’s never going to be cars again like 20-30 years ago

[beeniejo]

I love "junk" cars. Their little quirks are endearing to me. They also have a history and deserve some love.

[sorrowcat]

Good on you for saving this Sunfire. My mom had one years ago and it was the exact car I learned how to drive in, so there will always be a sweet spot for me with these cars.
